Will Taylor Swift pay those high rent, gas, grocery, or energy bills?

Pop music sensation Taylor Swift made headlines on Tuesday when she gave the least-shocking political endorsement arguably in the history of political endorsements. To no one’s surprise, Swift endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president. It's silly idolatry that really should not hold any relevance.

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I’m voting for [Kamala Harris] because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Swift posted to her Instagram account. “I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos.”

The singer’s absurd explanation for endorsing Harris, especially the part in which she connected Harris with “calm and not chaos,” apparently forgetting about the vice president’s support for the destructive Black Lives Matter riots, was posted under a picture of Swift with a cat and concluded with “Childless Cat Lady.” Obviously, this was a dig at Sen. J.D. Vance’s (R-OH) controversial comments.

Swift’s admittedly witty post aside, whoever she supports or endorses for president should be met with just one simple question: Who cares?

If voters are selecting their presidential candidates based on the opinions and comments of musicians, then this country is imminently doomed. Forget comparisons to the collapse of the Roman Empire — the United States will set a record of decadent stupidity if Swift’s endorsement actually has legitimate sway. Moreover, if it does, it is indicative of intellectual decay, cultural rot, and a lack of gravitas in our nation.

No one should care who Swift wants as president. Will she pay her fans’ rent payments, which have significantly increased since President Joe Biden and Harris were elected? Will she pay for her fans’ grocery bills, which have soared in cost compared to when former President Donald Trump was in office? How about their much higher gas or energy bills compared to the days before Jan. 20, 2021?

What about other important issues, such as security? Is Swift going to pay for the protection of young female nursing students in Georgia so they don’t get brutally murdered by illegal immigrants who are only in this country because of the failures of border czar Kamala Harris and the immigration policies she supported? Will she pay to protect innocent people from the murderers and carjackers who were left out on the streets and not put in jail because of the implementation of the kind of criminal justice policies Harris supports?

Unless Swift agrees to answer any of the above questions in the affirmative, then, in reality, her endorsement of Harris is moot. The endorsement is little more than a cultlike reaction that is typical of the affluent elitist entertainer class in the country. She will issue public support for Harris but be conspicuously quiet regarding the innocent people who have suffered because of Harris’s political beliefs.

Taylor Swift is free to vote for whoever she wants as president. She’s also free to endorse anyone she wants. But to argue that her endorsement is anything more than propaganda is utter nonsense. Let’s stop acknowledging it is anything more than that or giving such things any significance.
